There is this company called VIBCO. They are a wonderful manufacturer of tools and machines used in the construction industry. They are still in our files as a client, although the last production they did with us was quite a few years back. In any case, their main product line consists of vibrators.

Now, if you have as dirty a mind as I do - and I'm fairly sure that's the case - your first thought, when you heard the word "vibrator", was not about some sort of very useful construction equipment. It was about the sort of tool used to pleasure oneself.

With the foregoing as background, I ask you to click onto the link below. It will take you to a place where you can hear some semi-unedited audio from the first recording session I supervised for this client. Remember, they sell perfectly legitimate machinery and tools for use in the construction industry. However, if you bring your dirty mind along...

(By the way, the voice-over talents on the production did an entirely admirable job. They are both consummate professionals. One of them is a regular reader here, and he might like to add his own thoughts concerning this. The fact that one of them broke up a few times during the read is almost entirely due to the fact that I was behind the control board, off-mic, breaking up continually as I heard this stuff emanating from a woman who was desperately trying to keep a straight face.)

Most definitely, this was a really good laugh! "Pneumatic - no lubricator needed" etc. -just too doggone funny the whole way through even knowing what the product really is for, the mind just can't resist going to other avenues while listening to this!

OK, I was the male voice and while I'd love to say I could read this with a straight face, Jim played my edits, not my raw voice files. This was one of the hardest scripts (no pun intended) I have ever had to read, but boy was it fun! Jim, you should see if you could dig up the old outtake reel. That was some good clean fun!

i need a versatile explosion proof vibrator i can plug into my truck so i can take it anywhere. i'd also like to hear about some of the novel ways to use these things. i am soooo glad i can get a 10 day free trial and that my satisfaction is guaranteed.

absolutely hilarious. that the voice talents could do this at all is testament to their professionalism. thanks for the morning's guffaw.

So, so funny, Suldog - Incredible - And that the folk writing the script did not realise how many double entendre possibilities there were is just mind-boggling! Thank you for sharing the laughs - Always!

Sorry I came late to the party, but better late than never (school has been keeping me rather busy...)

Wow. This was absolutely fantastic! My daughter and I laughed so hard, and she kept miming banging her head against the wall...(she's 17, so she knows what a vibrator is...NOT from personal experience!)

I am, among other things...

My actual name is Jim Sullivan, but I'll answer to Jim, Jimmy, Sully, Suldog, Laroooooo, or Your Prescription Is Ready. Despite all evidence to the contrary found within these pages, I am a professional writer.
